Answer 1

roughly 1 earth-to-sun distance. I’m pretty sure we’re at the point you’re talking about when you consider the complications of temperature in a vacuum. if you were just floating in space alone then the distance would be closer….but you would be hella dead for other reasons. But if you’re in the safety of an atmosphere on an inhabitable planet with a decent temperature….you’re on earth.
